Idk what the culture is over there but it was just a bit funny to see the entire thread I was replying to just removed. Like that doesn’t happen here on kbin lmao. a bit of a culture clash there I guess.
I wonder if that’s the norm for lemmy and beehaw? Here on kbin basically nothing is removed it seems. at least for now.
Interesting
I’m already noticing “cultural” differences between the different instances, almost like they’re virtual countries with their own traditions, but still able to see and talk to each other
It’s beautifully chaotic and open, like the Internet should be!
Yup. that’s kinda how it feels to me. I saw someone describe it as lemmy is america and the lemmy instances are the states. and then kbin is canada lol.
your username ironically really proves the point. Just a few moments ago I saw beehaw users talking about how they’re strictly against loli content (declaring it “illegal” even though that’s not quite true), and here you are on kbin with it in your username lol.
Replying from Lemmy. 👋 Not the norm over here either. I wonder if there is just some weird sync issue happening?
Lemmy communities have public Mod Logs so even if a thread was removed I don’t think it’s gone forever.
When Stalinists are running the main Lemmy instances, it should not be surprising if history undergoes sudden and frequent changes there.
There’s an entire book on this predilection of Stalinism: “The Commissar Vanishes: The Falsification of Photographs and Art in Stalin’s Russia” (1997), by David King.
More mundanely, posters on the main Lemmy instances should already have seen that if anyone mentions oppression by certain states, e.g. the systematic oppression of certain minorities, this will ironically be labeled as “racism.” The racism of genocide denial is a Stalinist’s bread and butter, and will never result in deletions or bans.
Interesting. A few threads (from lemmy instances and beehaw) just ended up showing up as “removed” when I tried going to them. I figured the mods there removed it for whatever reason.
on kbin entire thread removals on that basically haven’t happened since I’ve been here, and moderation is pretty light as a whole (either due to the admin being very busy, or just the culture). I had heard lemmy.ml is pretty heavy on the censoring/removals so I figured it was that. I know beehaw has a weird culture thing as well that sounds like they’d be pretty quick to remove stuff that is “off-brand”.
Hi, I’m replying from Lemmy.
It could be the communities (magazines) I’m in, but I haven’t seen anything acting that way (with the exception of some instance overloads that caused federation issues during the first wave of Rexxit earlier this week).
I can’t say if maybe there are some issues in certain communities where that’s happening.
We told you they are crazy. We told you it wouldn’t work. Yes, the numbers are shiny on the other side but they are crazy. Start building here instead.
Hello from Lemmy!
